Offshore in Barbados: what you need to know about jurisdiction

Unlike the predominant monarchy, the United Kingdom, Barbados has completely closed the register of beneficiaries and the data on their assets and accumulated capital. In this way, jurisdiction is ideal for doing business in conditions of increased confidentiality.

All spheres of entrepreneurship are allowed on the island, but the license is required for banks, insurance, reinsurance, trusts, building associations, and municipal organizations.

The harbor is completely absent: stamp duty, customs duties for the importation of goods for the internal needs of the company, taxes on payments to other international business companies or non-residents, inheritance taxes and property transferred under the contract donation.

The company in Barbados pays only income tax, which is a four-step graduation:

Income up to 10 000 BBD – tax 2.5%;

Income from 10 000 to 20 000 BBD – 2% tax;

Income from 20 000 to 30 000 BBD – tax 1.5%;

For income over 30 000 BBD – 1% tax.

In the jurisdiction the obligatory document for annual drawing up and filing is only the tax declaration. The preparation of financial statements, as well as their audit, is required only if the company has assets worth $500 thousand.

And above. All documentation of the company can be stored in any place convenient for the director and founders.
